'Observer: System Redux' (ALL) Comes To PS4 And Xbox One - Trailer

by Rainier on May 6, 2021 @ 7:00 a.m. PDT

Observer: System Redux is a first person dystopian thriller/horror game that focuses on a dark, atmospheric environment and deep story telling.

The year is 2084.

The future has turned out much darker than anyone could imagine. First, there was the Nanophage. A digital plague that killed thousands upon thousands of those who chose to augment their minds and bodies.

Then came the War, leaving both the West and the East decimated and shattered. With no one left to seize power, corporations took over and forged their own crooked empires.

You are a tool of corporate oppression. Feared and despised, you hack into the darkest corners of your suspects’ minds. You creep into their dreams, expose their fears, and extract whatever your investigation may require.

You are an Observer.

Using a device known as the Dream Eater, hack into the minds of the dead and dying to relive their final moments, to explore their fears and obsessions. Delve into these twisted neural mazes and search for clues that will help you find the elusive killer. But beware: the deeper you go, the greater the risk of losing your own sanity.

Enter a world ravaged by war and cyber-plague, where life is cheap and hope is scarce. Where most people will do anything to escape their grim existence. Virtual realities, mind-altering drugs, neural implants - pick your poison and drift away into a blissful oblivion. But remember, no matter how deep you go, you can never hide from an Observer.

Currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam), Observer: System Redux will be coming to PS4 and Xbox One on July 16, 2021 for €29.99 / $29.99.

"As the first horror title for next-gen consoles, Observer: System Redux absolutely wowed cyberpunk and thriller fans on day one,” said Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno. “Fans of the original and new Observer: System Redux players love the new missions, but with next-gen consoles being hard to find, we’ve left many fans out in the cold. Now, the new Observer: System Redux missions, gameplay improvements, and content have been back-ported to Observer: System Redux for fans to enjoy.”

Koch Media announced the physical edition of Observer: System Redux ($29.99) for PS4, PS5, and the Xbox Series X|S, which includes the game, a softcover art book, and the soundtrack.

Veteran Observers can dive deeper into this dystopian reality thanks to three brand-new side cases to solve. “Errant Signal”, “Her Fearful Symmetry” and “It Runs in the Family” add another layer of depth to the game’s story while exploring thought-provoking themes of a future that soon might become our present.

On top of that, System Redux on PS4 and Xbox One offers expanded gameplay, which includes new game mechanics, new secrets to find, redesigned stealth, additional neural interrogations, and quality-of-life improvements made with the help of the Observer community.

Bloober Team has rebuilt its cyberpunk thriller, Observer, with augmented visuals, gameplay, and story as Observer: System Redux. The unique blend of cyberpunk and horror in System Redux features Rutger Hauer in one of his last voice-acting roles (Dan Lazarski/Observer) and the team views the title as a tribute to the late film star. The gamealso stars Polish musician and actor Arkadiusz Jakubik as Janus Jukowski, a veteran struggling with early model cybernetics. 

While System Redux is a remaster of the original Observer, it features some completely new, never-seen-before story.
